You mean "Benghazi!!!" was all manufactured outrage?
by David Atkins
Has there been in modern American politics a more ludicrous spectacle in manufactured scandalmongering than Benghazi? If so, I can't remember it:
The House Intelligence Committee, led by Republicans, has concluded that there was no deliberate wrongdoing by the Obama administration in the 2012 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, said Rep. Mike Thompson of St. Helena, the second-ranking Democrat on the committee.
The panel voted Thursday to declassify the report, the result of two years of investigation by the committee. U.S. intelligence agencies will have to approve making the report public.
Thompson said the report "confirms that no one was deliberately misled, no military assets were withheld and no stand-down order (to U.S. forces) was given."
The Benghazi howls had only one purpose: to damage Hillary Clinton. They didn't do the job. But there never any "there" there in the first place.
